In the project for tunneling the "Great
Divide or the Rocky Mountains, the
point proposed to be tunneled is under
Gray's Peak, which rises no less than
A. AL feet above the level of the sea.
At 4, All fee below the peak, by tunnel
ing from east to west for 25 600 feet,
direct communication would be opened
between the valleys of the Atlantic slope
would shorten the distance between Den
yer, in colorado, and Salt Lake City, in
Utah, and consequently the distance be-
tween the Missouri River, say at st.
Louis, and San Francisco 800 miles;
and there would be little more required
in the way of ascending or descending
or tunneling mountains. Part of the
work has already been accomplished.
The country from the Missouri to the
foot of the Rockies rises gradually in
rolling prairie till an elevation is reached
of 3, 200 feet above the sea level. The
Rockies themselves rise at various places
to height exceeding II 200 feet. OF
the twenty most famous passes, only
seven are below 10, 600, while five are up
ward of II, 600 feet, and one, the Argen-
tine, is 13, 900 feet OF the seventy-three
important towns in Colorado, only twelve
are below 5000 feet, ten are over 10, 600
feet, and one is If, 600 feet. Passes at
such a height are, of course, a barrier to
ordinary traffic, and the railways from the
Atlantic to the Pacific have in conse-
quence made detours of hundreds of
miles, leaving rich plains lying on the
western slope of the great snowy range
practically cut of from Denver and the
markets of the East. The point from
which it is proposed to tunnel is six
miles due west from Denver, and,
although one of the highest peaks, it is
by far the narrowest in the great back
bone of the American continent. Loco

A Use for Waste Coal Piles.

A patent has been recently asked for a
new process by which it is proposed ia
use the waste coal piles at the mouth OF
every coal mine and convert the culm
into sort of gas that can be used as
natural gas is used. The culm is to be
broken up in pieces and run into hop
per. Out of the hopper it comes in parti-
cles, and is fed to an air blast. This
blast is broken into different chambers,
and in circulating around each chamber
the particles of the culm rub against each
other, until by the time the last chamber
is reached they are reduced to a fine dust
that floats around in tie air-current.
When the last air-chamber is reached the
culm passes through a 10 mesh, and
comes out in a dark cloud. II is then fed
through pipes like gas. The particles OF
coal tloat in the air, and combine with the
oxygen of the air to make hot fire.
The inventor claims that this fuel will
make no smoke, but will be all consumed
before reaching the smoke-stack, owing
to its fneness. The trouble with the in.
vention is that it can be used only on a
large scale. .-ISyety TdIre.

On Colonel S. II. Hawkins's Furlow
plantation, in this county, lives one of
the most remarkable old colored couples
that we have heard of recently. Artemus
Tucker and his wife Narcissus are we'll
known among the many negroes in that
section, and none command more respect
from their race than they. cart" as he
is familiarly called, is eight-three years
old, and for the past tifty-three con-
secutive years has lived on the place.
Narcissus, his queen, is nearly sixty
years old aud tips the beam at 420
pounds in her stockings, while her liege
lord scarcely weighs 100 pounds. Her
only duty is to milk the COWS and attend
to the butter, and not small number of
our citizens can attest the fact that it is
a duty well performed. Since the
Americus, Preston and Lumpkin road
reached the station near the plantation
she once tried to enter one of the coaches
for the purpose of coming to town, but
the door was not large enough to admit
her, and she was compelled to ride in on
fiat car. She is very piously inclined,
and attends church every Sunday, at
which time a two-horse wagon is fur
nished her, which, by the way, she fills
comfortably, and thus prepared she rides
through the plantation to the little log
church with as much pride at the distinc-
tion shown her as would Queen Victoria.
She is a queer old genius, and with her
"old man" hopes to live on and finally to
be buried on "Mars' Sans" domain,
probably the only home that either ever
had.-Americ,, (Ga.) Recorder.

HEALTH HINTS.

Do not let stale flowers remain in a sick
chamber.
1t is claimed that the juice of lemon
squeezed into cup of strong coffee will
afford immediate relief in neuralgia head
ache.
Don't ask a convalescent if he would
like this or that to eat or drink, but pre-
pare the delicacies and present them in n
tempting way.
For a gunpowder burn, keep the
wounds wet with moisture of linseed
oil and lime water for three days, and
then apply vaseline to heal
1t is better to sleep upon the back than
upon either side, as there is in this posi-.
tion less compression of the chest and
less cramping Of the body and limbs.
In toothache, if the pain extends up
ward toward the eye, or takes the form
of neuralgia, get some horseradish leaves,
take out the stems, wet them and apply
to the face over the pain. This will
usually give relief.
Ear-ache may be cured, says the MeticdL
WOrid, by directing gentle stream OF
water, as hot as can be borne, directly
into the ear from fountain syringe
Care must be taken not to allow the force
of the stream to become too great. With
this precaution is is better than poultices
or anOdynes.

All salted provisions must be kept
under the brine.
Blueberry stains may be removed from
table linen by putting the part stained
into boiling water.
The white of an egg, with little
water and sugar, is good for children
with an irritable stomach.
Bar soap, when first bought, should be
cut in square pieces and put in dry
place. 1t lasts better after shrinking.
When the knives and folks are stained
with egg scour them with common table
salt. Medicine stains can be removed
from spoons in the same manner.
To cut glass jar, fill it with lard OF
to where you want to cut the jar; then
heat an iron rod or bar to red heat; i'm
merse it in the oil. The unequal eXpan-
sion will crack the jar all around at the
surface of the oil, and you can lift off the
top part.
Little clcavers or broad headed tacks
easily removed are the best for putting
down mating. They simply catch the
two edges together holding them firmly
in place, and can be much more easily

and without injury to the selvedge of

Castor oil is highly recommended for
softening and preserving shoes. Applied
at night about once a month it allows
polishing in the usual way the next morn
ing, and keeps the leather in good con-
dition. One who has tried it for years
says his shoes last nearly twice as long
since he began the practice, and they re-
ceive a higher polish.

THE LAND OF LITTLE PEOPLE.

Far away, and yet so near us, lies land
where all have been,
Played beside its sparkling waters, danced
along its meadows green,
Where the busy world we dwell in and its
noises only seem
Like the echo of tempest or the shadow Of
adream,
And it grows not old forever, sweet and
young it is to-day,
-'Tis the land of little people, where the
happy children play.
And the things they know and see there are
so wonderful and grand,
Things that wiser folks and older cannot know
or understand;
In the woods they meet the fairies, find the
giants in their caves,
See the palaces of cloudland and the murmur
of the waves,
Know what all the brides sing Of, hear the
secrets of the flowers,
For the land of little people is another world
than ours.
Once twas ours; It's ours no longer, for, when
nursery time is DER,
Through the land of flittlepeople wei may wan
der never more.
But we hear their merry voices and we sec
them at their play,
And our own dark world grows brighter, and
we seem as young as they,
Roaming over shore and meadow, talking to
the birds and flowers,
For the land of little people is 4airer
world than ours.

AristOcratic Frog Spearing.

Frog spearing is a questionable kind
of amusement which, it appears, is at
present INDUCED in by many aristocratic
idlers who are trying to kill the long
summer days in country seats. The
latest instance of this peculiar kind of
sport took place in the grounds of the
Chateau of Bellancourt. After luncheon
a party of ladies and gentlemen, armed
with weapons resembling cross bows, the
arrows being of hazel-wood, with long
lance-heads and attached to the bow by
silken strings, so as to enable the frogs
to be hauled in, proceeded to the banks
of pond. Then there was a great deal
of unceremonious STOPPING down as the
frogs appeared, and arrows were let off
in all directions, the slaughter being con-
siderable on the part of those who pur-
sued the sport for the purpose of bag
ging game. The impaied batrachians
were in all cases carefully collected and
handed over to the cooks. s.-PTis Letter.

of the Tribune; an old sheriff's officer
called Mouton, and Choquaft. The
latter had, as Usual, grown tender over
the fate of the Princes belonging to the
elder line; and Mouton, the sheriff's
officer, whose political svmpathies in
clined toward the republic, went so far
as to say that Charles X. was an old idiot.
After this Ohoquart, pale with rage, rose
from his seat and said to Mouton:
81 have taken an oath to slap the face
of any man who insults my king. l
shall now, therefore, slap yours"
The situation was exceedingly grave,
and everybody felt dreadfully uncom-
Portable. Choquart suddenly stopped
short, and said:
''Dear mel | owe Mouton q louis,
and can not strike him without first
reimbursing the money. 1t would be
ungentlemanly in me to act otherwise
Briffaut, lend me louis, will you, that
| may slap Mouton's facel"
81 have no change" answered Brif-
faut.
"BoufFc, quick, lend me louis, that l
may cuff Mouton's ears.''
my dear Choquart," replied Bouffe,
81 shall only be too happy to lend you
four times the amount outside of this
place, but can not lend you louis for
the purpose you mention"
At that moment entered the coffee
house.
"Ahl here comes Villemot, " exclaimed
Choquart, and bounding toward me he
said, hurriedly: "Lend me a louis.
Quick / want to box Mouton's ears, and
Il thnN 81
back the louis / owe him."
was at loss to make out what he
meant.
'Don't lend i'll don't lend it," cried
out those who were present.
At that time of life, especially, l had
a strong reluctance to lend louis, so
drew back.
The most amusing part of the story is
that Bouffc persuaded Mouton to believe
that he was no longer in safety.
"a louis, you see, is no large sum, "
said Bouffe; "Choquart is bound to have
spare one some day. and he will carry
out his threat. If | were you l should
lend him twenty louis; he'll never be
able to give back so large a sum, and
you are safe for the rest of your life"
So, after supper, Mouton offered to
lend Choquart twenty louis, who was
dumbfounded at the proposal. He saw
the danger, but danger had special at
fractions for him. He pocketed the
gold pieces, and said to Mouton as he did
so:
''Never mind; we are not quits yet.
The first time l receive my pension you
shall get your ears boxed all the same
Choquart, however, was never able to
command so fabulous sum as twenty
louis at any one time, nor to wreak
righteous vengeance "a the offender who
had insulted and slandered his King
